The number of bocks has 9 in the ones place. the number in the hundreds place is one more then the tens place. those two numbers equal 11. how many block are there?

There are 659 blocks

Solution:

The number in ones place is 9

Let's denote number in the tens place with x

The number in the hundreds place is one more then the tens place

Therefore,

The number in hundreds place is 1 + x

Those two numbers equal 11

Which means tens place number and hundreds place number sums up to 11

tens place + hundreds place = 11

x + 1 + x = 11

2x = 11 - 1

2x = 10

x = 5

Thus number in tens place = x = 5

Number in hundreds place = 1 + x = 1 + 5 = 6

The number is represented as:

Number = (Number in hundreds place)(number in tens place)(number in ones place)

Number = 659

Thus 659 blocks are there
